Hereditary chief with the Wet'suwet'en Nation says, rail blockaders are ``doing the right thing for the right reasons''

A hereditary chief with the Wet'suwet'en Nation is offering encouragement to protesters who were arrested at a central Ontario rail blockade this morning. Na'moks says the rail blockaders are ``doing the right thing for the right reasons.''

Police say 10 people are facing multiple charges after they moved to enforce an injunction ordering an end to the rail blockade on the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory in support of Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs.

Na'moks says a group of about nine hereditary chiefs who oppose the Coastal Gas Link natural gas pipeline plan to meet today to discuss next steps but adds only one of three conditions they set for talks with the federal government have been met.
